Hair Removal

Offered by: Jose H. Alvarez, MD, FACOG

Thinking about what to wear when the warm weather kicks in? How does it sound not ever having to worry about shaving your legs, underarms and bikini area before hitting the pool or river this weekend? Well, now is the time to consider hair removal. With the busy schedule women manage these days, and the pressures of juggling work, family and a household, it’s no wonder many women are opting to undergo this procedure to avoid the daily drama of shaving, waxing or electrolysis. Hair removal with the IPL (Intense Pulse Light) technology is extremely safe and effective by offering permanent hair reduction in practically all areas of the body where the hair is unwanted.

This IPL technology emits flashes of white light into the upper layer of the skin, which is then absorbed in the hair shaft. The pigmentation present in the hair shaft absorbs the optical energy resulting in suppression of hair growth. In other words, this system uses increased intensity light to damage the hair follicle components responsible for hair growth.

You may be surprised to find out that just about your entire body is covered with hair. Luckily most hair is rather fine and pale and in most cases invisible to the naked eye. However, thicker and coarser hair does appear in many unwanted areas of the body such as upper lip, chin, neck, breasts, back, arms and legs. Now, both men and women are taking advantage of this new technology in hair removal with minimal or no discomfort at all. In just a couple treatments, you too can achieve permanent hair reduction at an affordable price. Just a couple of flashes during your lunch time break is in most cases all the time needed to begin the process of hair removal. The sooner you start your treatments, the sooner you can enjoy smooth, soft, even-toned skin, saying good-bye to the razor burns, in-grown hairs and stubble!
